On this Thankful Thursday I am thankful for my mom who is celebrating her birthday today. At 82 years old her body might be wearing out but not her spirit. She is still going strong with places to go, things to do. and people to see. She volunteers with several organizations, entertains regularly, visits family members around the country and travels the world whenever she gets the opportunity. And no matter what the challenges of her life she rises above as an example of how to live life well.

Happy Birthday to my mom. May she be able to look back on her 82 years on this earth and see the hand of God in every situation and know she has always been loved and cherished through every moment of her life.
Your mom is one of a kind, no doubt about it. She certainly is a wonderful hostess and has so much energy; I'd like to have just half that much energy and spirit of hospitality!
